Good Morning from the UK, we doff our caps and raise a mug of tea at you.

 

[dc89]

Goddamn. Fox News is fucking salty.

This chick is straight up calling Obama fraudulent.

With the whole "Election Attorney" on the phone? I'm from the UK and it's crazy!

I mean, is this guy now out of work for 4 years?!

 

[Neo C.]

Just woke up here in the UK and it looks like the 1000 years of darkness has begun! I never want to return to my home country again!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I'm ok with this.


Congratulations USA, but it shouldn't be a close race to begin with. And too bad, the congress is still on hands of the crazies.

 

[NoRéN]

Fuck my life... America is finished and my country men and women are forever tarnished by their stupidity for this communist piece of shit.

lololololololololololololololol

Have a GOOD NIGHT.

 

[Kurtofan]

Fucking LOL:

Delusions.

 

[funkystudent]

I'd like to believe this is the beginning of the end for the Tea Party, but that's probably just wishful thinking.

Beginning of the end or the start of them taking control.

Could go ether way IMO.

 

[PJX]

I love the bitter tears from the Romney camp.

 

[WaterChroma]

Fox is being perfect as usual. Some lady is trying to reasonably explain how Republicans are no longer appealing and representative of many modern issues, but the rest of the panel isn't having any of it. Blaming Romney and Obama's incumbency instead.

EDIT: Oh, and now they're 'investigating' the voting irregularities...

The irony is that irregularities are not good for democrats. Democrats want as many people as possible to vote. So the idea of these voter irregularities that could be potentially be done by democrats sounds stupid, unless someone stupidly thought it was a good idea.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Come on Mississippi, actually.. yep, good old Mississippi.

Was actually gonna say from personal experience that this seemed awfully tame for MS.

 

[Apeopleman]

This is my conspiracy theory on FOX News.

The US is run by like 5 major networks. FOX newscorp acts like it's all rightwing and pro conservative on it's news side, but they're two faced and secretly are killing off the support for the Republicans by help projecting them as far right loonies.
Their Sunday cartoons are extremely left wing, they make shows like Glee and rile up the crazy right wingers by pushing gay media towards one side, and right wing gay paranoia on the other.

The Republicans lost because Romney is a douche, but he shouldn't have even been running in the first place. Both candidates are insanely polarizing, but FOX sold out their Christian rightwing base.

 

[NoirVisage]

Obama went into full preacher mode there at the end of the speech. I was clapping like a mother fucker in my apartment. Preach Mr. President. Preach.

I can't wait to fist bump my 72-year-old dad this weekend. Guy is a Vietnam vet and was a staunch Republican, even voting for Bush Jr. twice, but he's voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012. Fuck yeah motherfucker. Mom is still a die hard, but not crazy, Republican.

Your Dad sounds awesome, i would watch his biography.

 

[Steelrain]

Lol Bush didn't fuck the economy....is this dude on Fox serious?

 

[Kettch]

Looking at the county results, Bachmann definitely seems to be the favorite, unfortunately.

 

[MidgarBlowedUp]

I didn't know that being old and white makes it so you throw sanity out the window.

But hey, maybe I don't have the new, updated rule book.

I am a grumpy old white man myself.

Spoiler

I voted Democratic for the country and my state. Shhh... don't tell anyone.

 

[Fisticuffs]

Nate Silver is a fucking genius

 

[Black Republican]

is magnus caucusing with dems in the senate?

 

[perfectchaos007]

Harris county (Houston, TX) was very close

Barack Obama: 579,070
Mitt Romney: 579,068

99% precincts reporting

 

[PJX]

What do you expect Republican idiots to say? You actually think they will admit that Bush didn't mess up the economy?

 

[Paches]

Steve Schmidt just made a break for the exit on MSNBC. He is missing now from the panel.

 

[Piggus]

Why are they showing the Wii version of the virtual senate chamber? Those are some shitty textures.

 

[-PXG-]

Diablos is probably high as fuck on shrooms, eating a giant, greasy ass burger and getting his dick sucked. Pure bliss.

Rest easy my friend. All is good now.

So glad the Boss, was re-elected.

Bu-bu-but a single person's vote doesn't mean anything.

I guess I hoped reality would have set in by now.

It was probably two drunk guys saying "HEY! Lets vote for Obama!"

Spoiler

Old ass Eddie Murphy reference.

 

[dark_chris]

Im glad not many of my friends are voicing their bitter salty tears but one of my hot friends is just saying "You had a chance America. Enjoy the slow collapse"

Oi people.

 

[donkey show]

I'm ok with this.


Congratulations USA, but it shouldn't be a close race to begin with. And too bad, the congress is still on hands of the crazies.

So happy I got my absentee vote in.

 

[Chibits12]

Fox News will say anything to make some kind of talking point to keep their audiences interested in watching their channel. That's their job, to be talking heads.

Wow.

 

[Reuenthal]

I preferred Obama to Romney although was probably less enthusiastic for Obama than most gaffers so congrats to Americans for choosing Obama.

 

[CryptiK]

Fuck my life... America is finished and my country men and women are forever tarnished by their stupidity for this communist piece of shit.

Not sure if troll or just incredibly stupid. I think you are now forever tarnished by your own stupidity.

 

[GillianSeed79]

I also just want to say that even though W.Va. was called for Romney in like 30 seconds after the polls closed here, I waited 30 minutes in line to vote for Obama. Hopefully, you guys realize from my posting history that not all of us in the mountain state (I'm actually a native of Maryland) are racist, homophobic, inbreds like the common stereotype is.

 

[joeyjoejoeshabadoo]

"He fucking won?"

 

[Freezie KO]

The bitter tears at FOX continue, now bringing in election attorneys to bitch about the result.

I direct you to the Fox News thread. I compiled some hilarious links.

 

[Dusk Golem]

Again, this has been the most interesting election night in a long time. An amazing speech by Obama, gay marriage being passed in several states, medical marijuana legalized in a couple, closer to a 51st state that ever, all of these strange but fascinating stories ranging from Nate Silvers being spot-on with his guess again and twitter records being broken and George Bush accidentally voting for Obama, some of the overreactions from extreme right-wing groups, I have a feeling this night will be remembered for some time to come. Now to see how things go moving forward.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

But there's no twitter there.

wait wha- ahahhahaha

 

[Thoraxes]

I'd like to believe this is the beginning of the end for the Tea Party, but that's probably just wishful thinking.

Well, now that making Obama a one-term president can't be at the top of their list of agendas anymore, I have some slight hope.

 

[Steelrain]

Tampa held it down for Obama in Florida.

Glad I was able to contribute to that!

 

[toddhunter]

Today, enjoy the victory or feel bad about the close defeat.

But remember the only thing dumber than an undecided voter, is somebody who is always decided and never changes their mind.

Start from scratch and forget about who you voted for. Then make those bastards earn your vote from square one, every single time.

recreational marijuana, actually!

I'm proud to say that I didn't see one embarrassing thing on my Facebook feed going back 6 hours. I have good friends.

 

[Josh7289]

Hey all, I'm pleased.

Let's not stop here.

Good night.

 

[Jzero]

I only saw racist comments on 'The Onion' Posts

 

[PJX]

I guess I hoped reality would have set in by now.

Till this day I am still surprised at how many people still believe that Obama is responsible for the state of the economy.

 

[harmonize]

So will the sun not come up tomorrow morning, or do we still have to wait until inauguration day for the start of the 1000 years of darkness?

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

So, Gallup and the others, where do they go from here, lol.

Whats this about Bush voting for Obama?

 

[perfectchaos007]

Bu-bu-but a single person's vote doesn't mean anything.

In the grand scheme of things, one vote doesn't matter, but it can on a local level. With Obama winning Harris county by 2 votes, that means he won the most populated county in Texas. He also won the counties that consist of San Antonio, Dallas, and Austin which rounds out our top 4 most populated cities.
